I am very happy with our experience so far with Varsity Tutors. They matched my daughter with reading specialist Mary and she is wonderful! My 10 year old daughter feels happy after her sessions and believes her tutor has already helped her.

Nicholas: Santa Fe tutor

Certified Tutor

I am a dedicated educator with a love of science and a desire to help inspire students to embrace and understand the scientific principles that govern our world.

I attended Truman State University where I attained B.S. degrees in both chemistry and biology. I then went on to obtain my Ph.D. in Biochemistry from Weill Cornell Medical College (Cornell University).

I currently teach upper school science (biology and chemistry) at a top rated independent school in NYC. I also tutor AP and SAT subject test in science for high school students.

My philosophy is based on interdisciplinary thinking. It is important to connect different disciplines to help the students understanding and appreciation for them.
Outside academia, I am interested in music and theatre. I currently sing with the ensemble Essential Voices USA. I am also a life member of the service fraternity Alpha Phi Omega
